Next-generation, alternate approach

The following states provide an alternate approach to managing Nginx and Nginx servers, as well as code organization. Please provide feedback by filing issues, discussing in #salt in Freenode and the mailing list as normal.

nginx.ng

Meta-state for inclusion of all ng states.

Note: nginx.ng requires the merge parameter of salt.modules.pillar.get(), first available in the Helium release.

nginx.ng.pkg

Installs nginx from package, from the distribution repositories, the official nginx repo or the ppa from Launchpad.

nginx.ng.src

Builds and installs nginx from source.

nginx.ng.config

Manages the nginx main server configuration file.

nginx.ng.service

Manages the startup and running state of the nginx service.

nginx.ng.servers_config --------------------------

Manages virtual host files. This state only manages the content of the files and does not bind them to service calls.

nginx.ng.servers -------------------

Manages nginx virtual hosts files and binds them to service calls.

nginx.ng.passenger

Installs and configures Phusion Passenger module for nginx. You need to enable the upstream phusion passenger repository with install_from_phusionpassenger: true. Nginx will also be installed from that repository, as it needs to be modified to allow the passenger module to work.
